what a weekend!

lots of sewing, chatting, laughter and eating - oh my! The food we had! The wine and cheese! It was a great retreat weekend at Loon Lake.

a beautiful spot

I managed to get a few things finished - some small items, but then bounced around from project to project before settling into to doing some quilting.

a little warm up quilting

As part of this lovely weekend hosted by the talented Krista of Poppyprint fame, we had an opportunity to do a workshop with Krista Withers on Compositional Quilting. This was a preview of a class Krista is teaching at QuiltCon next February. I don't think I will ever look at a quilt top the same way! A good part of my weekend was spent quilting a top I had put together just for this workshop.
Fun fun fun!

You were so productive this weekend! I'm glad you had a nice time and thank you for providing such inspiration with your FMQ. Amazing!! I agree, I will be looking at negative space in an entirely new light now, too. That K2 knows stuff.
